easily the most innovative guitarist in history
OK, who wrote pop star?
looks around shaking his head
I Do not really like his early works(the first 3are more poppy albums) after he really developed his tallent he was playing more free and made really nice performances live.Like the band of gysys and live at berkeley nstuff.
hendrix rocks!!!!! go lefties
Jimi ‘the dead god’ Hendrix. Lefties always own. xD
Pop Star!!! Who…?
Have you ever been experienced?
He was ahead of his times, and possibly the greatest guitar play ever!
For those who don't know. Jimi hendrix was considered a pop artist during his time because he fit the description of an extremely popular, enigmatic, and marketable artist. Being a pop artist doesn't have to mean good or bad. Today it does because people listen to terrible uninspired music now adays, back then people worshipped music. And this is why JIMI HENDRIX is GOD!!!!! Light that Strat ablaze one more time JIMI.
...not only the fact that he was great with "the axe"; he, along with a few others from his time, died when he was at the top of his game...
'scuse me while I kiss the sky.
Jimi Hendrix is a legend!
in the song "Purple Haze", at the part where he says, "'Scuse me while I kiss the sky", a lot of people either laughed a lot or got mad because it sounded like he was saying, "'Scuse me while I kiss this guy". at concerts, he did it on purpose. lol what a sense of humor. xD
Man I love his song "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)".
hmmm i prefer castles made from sand and foxy lady to purple haze
Red House or Little Wing
i am experienced
Castles Made of Sand is an amazing song. It sounds like he is playing the guitar backwards! It is amazing. The man had talent. RIP.
not backwards, upside down.
probably the best guitar player ever. i have a pic of him in my locker at school.
what i don't get is why he's categorized with like, frank iero and pete wentz on here.
i love his music its the best in the world
Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) is genius. Pure genius - and that's an understatement.
Whenever i want to feel something i listen to The Wind Cries Mary.
my mom saw him play at woodstock he played the national anthom with his teeth
hendrix thats all have to say
The guy is F..king unreal. I have very rare DVDs of him, and words fail to discribe his abillity on the guitar. I play Guitar also, and all I can do is admire the guy. He is to good for me to copy, even his less complex stuff, thats for sure. No one can even come close to what he has achieved in such a short time.
The best guitarists in history! 8’D
